Today we are machining some metal inside the scanning electron microscope! By creating a custom fixture, we can manually ...
Chinese researchers analyzed the first-ever soil samples returned from the far side of the moon, but further samples will be ...
The technology, called Single-Molecule Atomic-Resolution Time-resolved Electron Microscopy (SMART-EM for short), lets scientists observe individual atoms and molecules as they interact during chemical ...
The initiative, commonly referred to as INTERSECT, has two primary goals. The first is to use AI, robotics, computer simulation, the lab’s networking expertise and other high-tech tools to reduce the ...
Thanks to a mouse watching clips from “The Matrix,” scientists have created the largest functional map of a brain to date – a ...
Researchers at Pitt have produced the most detailed image to date of a bacteriophage–phage for short–that has allowed them to ...
Researchers mapped 84,000 neurons in a mouse brain after it watched video clips. The 3D map links structure and activity.
Plants know how to defend themselves against pathogenic microorganisms. In turn, pathogens have sensors to detect such defense mechanisms. What happens when plant and pathogen are locked in that duel?
A team of scientists has directly observed catalysis in-action at the atomic level. In mesmerizing new videos, single atoms move and shake during a chemical reaction that removes hydrogen atoms from ...
From a cubic millimeter of tissue, scientists constructed a precise, 3D map of the activity in a mouse’s brain, detailing ...
A Northwestern University-led international team of scientists has, for the first time, directly observed catalysis in-action ...
